CODE OF PRACTICE FOR SAFETY IN LABORATORIES PART 4 : IONIZING RADIATIONS
This standard sets out the precautions neededto prevent unnecessary exposure of both workers using sources of ionizing radiation in laboratories and persons outside the laboratory from being harmed by accidental or planned releases of radioactive materials or external beams of radiation. It also describes the important characteristics of ionizing radiation-producing materials and apparatus, the nature of the hazards, laboratory design requirements and other essential radiation protection information.
The requirements of this standard should be implemented in all laboratories in which:
